Summary

This Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex presents beautifully with an incredibly clean front, sharp front corners, and great surface condition. The primary factors holding it back from a Gem Mint grade are minor whitening specks on the back left corners and a slight centering shift on the reverse.

ROI

The minor whitening on the back corners will likely limit this card to a solid 9 at most grading companies. PSA is often the preferred choice for modern Pokémon cards in Mint 9 condition as it maintains high liquidity and is slightly more forgiving on minimal back wear than BGS.
